I’m honored to be one of the 22 artists chosen to represent contemporary art in New England. New work will be on view from April 5 until September 15, 2019.

The 2019 deCordova Biennial presents a survey of contemporary art of New England, showcasing compelling and ambitious art-making in the region. The twenty-three artists selected for the 2019 Biennial are from all six northeastern states-Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Featuring work across diverse mediums including painting, video, sculpture, photography, fiber art and ceramics, the Biennial will occupy all galleries of the Museum and extend into the Sculpture Park with new site-specific commissions.

“By evoking the uncomfortable gap between violence and the collective “cleanup,” Horesh leaves us space to contemplate. Who was the bomber? Who were the victims? What butterfly effect has been set in motion?

Aftermath nods to the traditions of street photography, photojournalism and the archival impulse, as well as photo books like Joel Sternfeld’s On This Site and The American Monument. Yet unlike Friedlander, Horesh can only capture the hum of ghosts. To paraphrase Robert Frank, Horesh’s compassionate eye listens before it looks.”

Many thanks to Michelle Aldridge for the fantastic preview to Aftermath’s opening at the Museum of Art at UNH. Read the full article here.
